Check out John Woo's 'Last Hurrah For Chivalry'. He became more noted for his action thrillers but I remember that one being an awesome wuxia Kungfu movie with some hilarious dubbing. The old Shinobi No Mono b&w movies about Sengoku period ninjas are also dope as fuck, but I never see anyone talk about them.
If you just want some dumb tv to have on the background you can do worse than the Twisted Metal tv show. Season 2 is actually fun and if you grew up with the games well you’ll be amused seeing the characters from the game.
Season 1 isn’t the worst thing ever just skip whenever you feel bored. I only really liked the scenes with Sweet Tooth.

Oh shit, s02 is out? Season 1 was an absolute sleeper hit for me, it's trashy and extremely silly at times but fuck me, i found it to be very entertaining. Gonna start watching s02 tonight, i think i even am on a free month of Prime right now so i don't have to pirate for once.
just watched sinners, pretty fucking boring first hour, and then it's just black from dusk til' dawn. like a 5/10 movie and of course there's a god damn post credits scene because ryan cooglers a marvel director. Most overhyped movie of 2025 - just watch from dusk til dawn if you're interested in this crap
Lee van Cleef teams up with Lo Lieh (Indonesian guy who was Bruce Lee before Bruce Lee was a thing) to find some Chinese gold his uncle Wang stashed while prospecting in the wild west.
This movie has a ridiculous premise played completely straight. basically a stealth comedy that starts out serious Western/kung fu action and gets delightfully silly when the two flavors collide. Their "epic" quest is so insane Lee had to repeatedly ask if Lo was jerking him around.
they have to find a tattoo treasure map on the buttcheeks of 4 beautiful women
Most of this movie is the two leads going from town to town like some comedy duo asking people the stupidest things with Lo being the straight man and Lee just laughing his ass off and enjoying the ride. I had such a good time watching them screw around I was surprised when the movie actually kicks into gear and has a badass final. Lee transforms from Lo's comedy sidekick into a shirtless killing machine and Lo gives the most one sided Jedi ass kicking a man can get when dealing with kung fu in the wild west.
The villain was amazing.
He's an insane street preacher who looks a bit like an evil Jesus dressed in leather with an Indian sidekick. He teams up with the EXACT same Mexican gang from Captain Apache.
I just loved how earnestly silly this movie was. It doesn't play up the comedy and that makes it 10 times funnier.
The Day of The Jackal is just so fucking good. It is the leanest movie every made, absolutely no fat or fluff at all and it respects you by treating you as a human with a brain. Edward fox is so good that when the jackals not on screen I'm asking "where's the jackal?". The movies is paces out so perfectly that as soon as you feel on his side he's does something to remind you what he really is. I love that the movie cares about the politics of the job as much as the jackal does, he's their for the money I'm here for the thrill. It's strange to concider no music a good thing but with how straight faced and real the movie is it works perfectly.

Sounds fun, will watch. There's a DVDrip on Rarelust under the title "Blood Money".
Off the top of my head I can name another movie with an Asian warrior in American western setting called Red Sun, starring Charles Bronson and Toshirô Mifune.
Coming soon, from Third Window Films in the UK and Kani Releasing in the US, is the Maiku Hama trilogy of films, directed by Kaizo Hayashi, starring Masatoshi Nagase as Yokohama PI Hama (of course his name is a take on Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer), a 1990s series of off-beat riffs on vintage detective and noir films. Easy-going, good natured but sometimes quick-to-anger Maiku, who gets around in a Nash Metropolitan with California plates, works out of an office on the second story of an old movie theater, stuck between the projector and the screen. He doles out terse Bogart-esque narration and wants to earn enough money to help send his younger sister Akane to college.
In the first film, 1994's The Most Terrible Time in My Life Maiku is hired by a Taiwanese waiter to locate his missing brother and Maiku ends up in a maze of underworld conflicts in bubble-economy era Japan.
In The Stairway to the Distant Past (1995), Hama has been taking on cases like rescuing lost dogs for eccentric but wealthy clients during a slump in more weighty PI work, his Nash has been repossessed and to top it off, he hears the mother who abandoned him and Akane when they were just children has returned to the city, a now middle-aged legendary stripper known as Sexy Dynamite Lily. He ends up caught in his past as it relates to the present, blackmailed by a corrupt policeman into investigating trouble along the waterfront. Young blood Yakuza gang the "New Japs" are attempting to take over the Yokohama waterfront territory held since the post-war years by the mysterious "Man in White", who has ruled with an efficient iron fist. The New Japs have no respect for the old hierarchies and traditions and gleefully don't care who they insult. At least the "Man in White" had a code of sorts...the riverfront representing a sort of connection between modern Japan and the post-war era, which still casts a shadow...
in the finale of the trilogy, 1996's The Trap is a somewhat more somber outing with elements of psychological horror with surreal touches...a serial killer is abducting young women, drugging them and leaving their bodies posed in public places. Could there be a connection to the strange masked man who tried to hire Maiku to locate...himself (and who he turned down because the case was too weird even for him)? It becomes Maiku's problem when he's framed for the serial killings and the corrupt detective in charge of the investigation indulges in his long standing grudge against the PI to nail him for the murders, even when a rookie police detective gives him an alibi, and the killer has targeted Yukio, a mute woman who works at the post office and is in a relationship with Maiku...
I swear i never expected anyone but me having seen that movie. Grabbed it of Avistaz ages ago and had it slumbering on an external HDD with some other, rather obscure jap kino and finally got around to watching it earlier this year. Ended up liking it a lot, goes hard in its own style. Very likeable cast and the story was engaging. Have been kicked off Avistaz since years, maybe i have a chance now to grab the other two films with that release.
Been watching the new Twisted Metal season and am not disappointed, got like two episodes left. It's as funny and trashy as the first season. Calypso and his retard laugh is hilarious, Axel was perfectly casted and adapted from the games. Grimm had a cool introduction but i feel they wasted his character, could've done much more with it. Vermin was an annoying and shitty addition to the cast. Still, i am very much entertained over all.
I know this is late and gay, but did any of you catch the IMAX remaster of Jaws? I thought it looked great, it’s crazy how much better (even janky) practical effects look than cgi slop. Never got to see the movie on anything bigger than the living room TV, so it was a real treat to watch.
If you haven't seen Glengarry Glenn Ross, I would highly recommend. I can watch that thing multiple times in a single week and still be entertained. One of the greatest casts every assembled, giving some of the greatest performances of their career. The basic premise is a handful of scummy "real estate agents" who work at a scummy agency try to sell their worthless properties to hapless idiots over the course of 18 hours with the knowledge that their success will have a massive impact on their career.
That might not sound like the most exhilarating premise for a movie but the dialogue and acting is next fucking level. One of the funniest and most vulgar things I have ever seen. It is also based and pajeet-pilled.
i just watch 127 hours with my bro cool movie but we had to watch on youtube whatever i thought. THEY FUCKING BLURRED THE SCENE WHERE THE GUY CUTS HIS ARM OFF THATS THE WHOLE POINT OF WATCHING THE MOVIE FUCK YOUTUBE FUCK THE JEETS THE RUN YOUTUBE FUCK GAY FAGGOT CENSORSHIP I AM AMERICAN I CAN WATCH ALL THE GORE I WANT FUCK YOUTUBE.
i showed it to my brother uncensored id recommend it though

The first half is much more interesting than the second half. They wasted half of the cast and the action is painfully boring. Very much a product of its time. I don't get the hype with Michael Jordan either. He's usually a pretty good actor but I didn't think that was the case here. Never bought him as being two separate people. Also thought it was really funny that the main character(s) are literally black gangster pimps coming back to exploit their hometown and the people they grew up with. Really a profound cultural statement there, Coogler.
Kind of worse because everybody who praises it is illiterate to the films it's derivative of. They think it's breaking new ground, when it actually just poorly imitates much better movies.
Another funny thing was the Robert Johnson character speaking so reverently about Chicago ("I hear they don't have no Jom Crow up there!"). I can't believe low IQ mongoloids fall for this crap.
Too bad, because it's a pretty good looking movie a lot of the time.
Just watched The Hidden (1987), a sci-fi/action buddy-cop flick starring Kyle Maclachlan alongside a ton of recognizable character actors. It's like a mix of The Thing, They Live, and Lethal Weapon by way of an X-Files episode. It's really wickedly entertaining, lots of funny scenes and quotable dialogue.
It's worth noting that the MIB film franchise rips off pretty much everything from this movie, it's really astounding they got away with it, because it's so blatant and also handled a lot better here.
The Naked Gun (2025).
So much better than I expected, it had me laughing from the start. One of those rare modern reboots that lives up to is predecessor. Not all the jokes land, but even then there’s probably another one coming along in a few seconds that will.
If you’re like me and skipped it because the trailer looked awful and it’s a modern movie I would very much recommend it, you might be pleasantly surprised.
I was very surprised how good this was. It wasn't the generic feel good romp I was expecting. This starts out as a shockingly dark and topical revenge flick that gradually turns into a mission of mercy. After Lee van Cleef satisfies his revenge, he forms a mini dirty dozen with a gang of drafted criminals to go after Mexican bandits and it's pretty rad. I particularly liked how gritty Lee was and the way he manipulated the crooks to stay the course in their borderline suicide mission. They also have a writer who tags along to chronicle how much of a badass Lee is and he's a delightfully earnest Watson type.
The sevens demolitions expert is the cop from death wish 3, and Gary busey has a bit part as a robber rapist.
My only complaint is the villain doesn't really have much character. (Realistically he's off screen till the end and barely speaks in the chaos of the fight) He's such a piece of shit and the writing is so good you don't need much to want him dead. They had a pretty cool way of taking him out too.
It threads the needle of being in continuity with the other movies but works as a standalone too. Really liked how its written as a swan song for the main character Chris Adams. Definitely one of the better written and bigger budgeted flicks lee's ever done.
(Its delightfully ironic that Lee took Yul Brenner's role after Yul stole Sabata for a movie)
Starz's Black Sails, at least for the first two seasons, is a great watch. It pulls off the stronk womyn in an "unenlightened" age off well, up until it gets to the nigger queen and princess in season 3 tom nigger somehow secretly had the entire time. One being routinely showed up and throwing a hissy fit while the other literally got raped for a grand misstep really helps. Anne Bonny being that one possibly autistic girl with extreme mental instability in elementary school that would sock your friend in the dick if they laughed at her was a strangely realistic choice. Helps that everyone knows she's off her rocker and a straight up fight with a guy got her ass in a pirate age hospital bed for most of the last season.
Things just veer way away from the whole pirate politics angle by the end. What they did to my boy Billy got me fucked up, as the niggers are so fond of saying. There is an unironic faggot plantation in the finale. Oh, and Captain Flint is a fag for some reason. Don't think about it because you'll be pondering all the other ways they could've justified his hatred for the British Empire.
the entire final season is a giant "wait, that's it?" holy fuck
at least game of thrones was entertaining in how bad it was

Yeah, the whole final season was a bit of a rush job and suffers for it, in contrast to the first season where they take far too long establishing everything and barely anything happens until the last episode. Still well worth a watch though. I do particularly appreciate how every single attempt at girl-bossing ends with realistic, and usually fairly horrific, consequences.
Oh, and the happily-ever-after faggot plantation is heavily implied to be bullshit that Silver made up. Just believable enough to protect his reputation (and so the producers of the show don't get screeched at for killing off a faggot), but presented in such a way that the scene looks like a dream sequence compared to the rest of the show, so anyone that actually watched the whole show rather than just skimmed it to write reviews for some shitty rag can tell it didn't really happen.
